Nakano provides a distinct experience for visitors interested in Tokyo’s specialist subcultures. Less central than Akihabara, this neighbourhood draws a more knowing crowd of enthusiasts. The district serves as a central point for otaku culture, a Japanese term for people with dedicated, often deep interests in areas like anime, manga and video games. Its primary attraction is Nakano Broadway, a multi-level mall from the 1960s that houses a dense collection of specialist shops, including the flagship Mandarake complex, selling vintage toys, comics and collectables. Access to the mall is through the Nakano Sun Mall, a covered shotengai (shopping arcade) filled with everyday shops and eateries. In recent years, Nakano Broadway has also developed a parallel reputation for its concentration of dealers in high-end vintage watches.

Encircled within a courtyard of modern dwelling buildings, Rotunda of St George is the oldest preserved structure in the city, which has also been declared a UNESCO World Heritage site. The beautiful cupola holds a fourteenth-century portrait of Christ surrounded by four angels.

Wied iż-Żurrieq is a small village situated on the southern coast of Malta.

A visit to Västerviks Museum offers new insights into the long history of the Tjust region. Explore the exhibitions, stroll through the picturesque park area, view the old crofts, or perhaps peek into the blacksmith's shop or quarry. Outside the museum, there's also a collection of traditional local boats, known as 'tjustökor'. For those who enjoy heights, the city view from the Unos Torn observation deck is a must-see.
